Anime quizzes that elementary school kids will love! A collection of questions parents and children can enjoy together

science nerd

The correct answer is “science nerd.” The protagonist, Senku Ishigami, is a born-and-bred science kid with a superhuman mind and vast knowledge. After a mysterious phenomenon petrifies all of humanity and thousands of years pass, leaving civilization in ruins, he awakens in the “Stone World.” He resolves to rebuild civilization from scratch using the power of science. With his catchphrase, “Now this is exciting!” he’s a cool science-nerd hero who carves a path forward no matter how hopeless things seem, relying on his faith in science and his never-give-up spirit.

Ken Takakura

One of the protagonists of Dandadan, the high school girl Momo Ayase, loves the actor Ken Takakura, a legendary star who represents the Showa era. Momo’s type is a stoic, cool-headed man, and there’s a scene at the beginning of the story where she passionately talks about her love for Ken Takakura. The other protagonist, Okarun, actually has the same real name—Ken Takakura—but Momo deliberately started calling him “Okarun” because “he doesn’t resemble the Ken Takakura I like.” For Momo, the clumsy yet manly Ken Takakura is truly the ideal man.

rubble

The correct answer is Rubble. He’s a bulldog boy who’s great at construction work, known for his yellow uniform and power bulldozer. In the Japanese-dubbed version of the anime, he’s beloved as a cheerful Kansai-dialect character with his catchphrase, “Leave it to me—brrr!” He’s very strong and dependable, but he also has a cute side: he’s actually a bit afraid of spiders and ghosts, and that gap makes him especially popular with many children.

cream puff

The correct answer is cream puffs. The protagonist, Mash Burnedead, loves this pastry dearly, and it appears frequently throughout the story. It’s been his favorite since his days living in the forest, and even after enrolling in the magic academy, he carries them in his uniform pocket and even makes them by hand. Even in the middle of battles with enemies, his laid-back habit of trying to eat this pastry is practically his trademark.

6th grade (elementary school)

The protagonist, Oriko Seki—nicknamed Okko—is a sixth grader at the beginning of the story. After losing her parents in a traffic accident, she begins training as a junior innkeeper at Haru-no-Ya, the hot spring inn run by her grandmother. While struggling to balance her life as an elementary school student with her duties as a young innkeeper, the story depicts her growth through encounters with Uri-Bo, a ghost; her rival, Matsuki; and many guests.
